Great days great people 1970s when football was awesome 👌
I'd swap what we have today for that in a heartbeat.
The houses look tidy, the shops are all clean and open, the people are all British...just perfect.
Itd be hard for a while to get used to no phone, no ebike, no this and no that, but this was the best of Britain.
Top boys (and girls) Leeds, bygone days but wish you the best for the future, may we meet again
@@Tennyhu where is it?
I'm a Chelsea fan and very happy that leeds are staying up
thank you..!!
Fantastic footage. Been to Leeds many a time with Newcastle. I remember us taking around 8,000 down the on the opening day of the 87 Season? I'm not entirely sure of the year but Kevin Carr broke his arm and Waddle went in goal for Newcastle for a bit. Newcastle were everywhere that day. We stopped the van about five mins walk from the ground and the moment we got out Leeds were into us.. lol... not even a chance of a warm up bounce about in the road. Just bang bang and it was away. Leeds was a rough place where you were on for a kicking unless you had enough lads with you to stand and fight them. Newcastle always did and the proper Leeds will know this. Never felt like you were going to get slashed either. Unlike Boro, Chelsea (just about all the London clubs in fact) both scouse teams and lots of little no mark teams looking to make a rep for themselves. Always a good day out in my book. Cracking atmosphere in Elland Road, a really noisy ground. Newcastle used to be the same but it's shite now. 52,000 people and most of them sitting on their hands or gawping into their phones.
Think you might be wrong about Kevin Carr. I think he was peddled by then. From memory he done his arm in walking through a patio door in a pre season tour of spain or somewhere. I also think it was the first game of the 83/84 season that we got promoted. It was boiling and they were charging £1 for water when you could get a pint for 35p. Have to agree with you though, that you had to be on form there or keep your head down or you would get done within minutes. I always found them to be a bit like Man Utd and just a big rabble of vandles looking to create havoc because of their numbers, but at the same time I suppose people viewed us like that as well. Also have to agree with you about not having to worry about getting slashed. You might get kicked to shat but you didnt have to worry about getting a Stanley across your back like many other places. London, Boro, Merseyside, etc as you say.
First away game of the 83/84 season was Leicester mate. Then Arsenal away in midweek and Man Utd on the Saturday. I was at all of them. You could be right about Kevin Carr as he was hurt on a pre season incident in Spain. All I know for sure is that it was opening day and Waddle went in goal. Red hot day and Newcastle set fire to that traffic roundabout just outside the ground. I came home with a black eye, but it was from one of our own lot. Long standing disagreement came to the fore ... and I got my eye blacked.
Sorry to disagree but Leeds was 83/84 as per this link www.nufc.com/html/1983-84.html . It sticks in my mind cos we were promoted in 84 which was also the year I left school. Funnily enough Huddersfield away, which is where I think we secured promotion, was the away match I attended after officially leaving school and I remember feeling like billy big bollox shouting "back to school on monday" at their fans in that big terrace down the side of the pitch. Leicester, Arsenal, Man u etc was the 84/85 season. Talking of getting whacked by one of your own, that happened to me at Arsenal after that mid week game. We got to the ground to early and got talking to some bloke who gave us a couple of seat tickets (god knows why). when we came out Newcastle were coming from the right from the clock end and arsenal were coming from the left and we were right in the middle, so we walked into the newcastle fans. Some newcastle fan whacked me thinking I was a cockney
84-85 was the season we got promoted. First three away games Leicester, Arsenal and Man Utd. The Leeds game was a Div 2 game. We had about 8,000 down for it. We had even more than that down at Man Utd when we lost 5-0. About 10,000 - 12,000 according to police estimates. The good old days ...
Think we are saying the same thing in different ways. 83/84 we were in div 2 with leeds away first game of the season. 84/85 we were in div 1 with Leicester, arsenal and man u first 3 away games. They were great days, not like the sterile toss in stadiums with no atmosphere that's served up today.
Shit days but happy days,not much money around back then but we appreciated what we did have much more than people do today....Hello hello we are the Revie boys:-)
Although it looks a bit stupid fashion-wise, those were great days from a Birmingham City fan, who experienced the same.
1.19 Fred west on the coach on the right 😂
I've always liked Leeds and still look out for their results to this day.
@David Erlstoke Glasgow
@David Erlstoke haha fuck right off.
just an observation everyone looked thinner back then. no obesity!!
No McDonald's or KFC back then
It was those hamburgers you could get out of that pissy water , guaranteed to give you the shits and lose you half a stone. Them wot days.
We never had the massive range of processed food, ready meals and takeaways we all take for granted now and chocolate and cakes were a weekend treat. We did eat lots of chips though! But the main reason I reckon (I went from 7 to 17 yrs old in the 70's), was that we mostly walked to school, 'cos if you were lucky enough to have a family car, your dad used it to get to work. We spent our evenings and leisure time playing football in the park, running about riding our bikes or swinging on ropes in the woods (3 channels on TV and no internet or games to keep us indoors). And our parents were glad to have us out of the house. Great time to be a kid!
Spot on but back then there was fk all to do indoors.We were out all day🥃
Big team , big big team, should be back in the top flight , i remember as a kid not being allowed to the Celtic v Leeds European Cup Semi final because it was gonna be too packed , i was gutted as a 7 year old kid
The attendance was a record for a European match. It still stands to this day, and will never be beaten.
Potentially a big club but spent as much of their history outside the top division as in it and usually around 20th position in all time league tables. They're the facts.
Brilliant!
bet youve not a fuckin clue who bertie mee was have you
And not a prawn 🦐 sandwich in sight
f'king class video. Super Leeds United
Wankers
Leeds, Argentina fans
Andy Gray getting searched at 3:20 😂
The fans in the kop end were known as the Geldard boot boys , the kop was often called the Geldard end because of geldard road behind .
Gelderd*
@@CB-xr1eg
Lol , guess i spent too much time in the kop and not enough learning how to spell Gelderd 🤣🤣🤣
@@johningram9017 No excuse mate, I was a kopite too!🤣🤣 And it was written on the signs above the entrance.
@@CB-xr1eg
Yer but i cant read either .👍I started off going in the boys pen then crawling under fence that seperated it from the kop until i was too old to get in boys pen then had to pay full kop price hahaha.
@@johningram9017 Which explains how you are able to read and reply to my comments...right?👍😁
Like herding cats! It was all just harmless fun but there were some proper rows!
Leeds travelled everywhere but Old Trafford Manchester they never showed in them days but United took thousands to Elland Rd.
Absolute bollocks,man utd aren't exactly renowned for their so called hooligan element are they? The last time Leeds went to old Trafford they knocked you out of the f.a.cup with thousands of Leeds fans in attendance.
@@matthewfindlay2242 its not bollox at all during the 70s leeds had shit support at ot an places like that. utd gad a massive rep then .it was later leeds in the second tier started to travel. leeds always been up for it mind
flag leeds had their most successful period during the 60s and 70s and your saying their fans didn't travel?
@@matthewfindlay2242 no i said they never went certain places. tbf traveling was not at common as in later yrs. they did travel but not in massive numbers as later.
flags travel was commonplace back then
British rail football specials,coach trips and buses,leeds had big numbers travelling which is why the "service crew" was so well known,man utd have always been leeds biggest game so to say leeds fans never travelled to old Trafford is bollox!
Wow we all hate Leeds, (we’ll before galatasery) but this is amazing. Real vibes
How difficult it must have been to run wearing flares and sporting a massive 'do. No wonder the pigs nicked everybody.
I think Leeds United could be promoted this season. They have had lots of good Scottish players over the years. I support cross border cups between Scottish, Welsh and English sides. I do not support merging the leagues as that would destroy our football history and identity. I want a best of both worlds where keep our own leagues but also have cross border British cups on top of European and domestic soccer.
The Scottish have allowed English, Welsh and Irish sides in the Scottish Challenge Cup. So UEFA AND FIFA would be OK with this. I think keeping our own leagues but having cross border British cups would really help the Celtic soccer leagues develop and grow. Teams would get higher attendances, TV rights, and sponsorship deals. It would enable the Celtic leagues to grow.
It would be fun to have cross border games at a high level every season. It would be great to have cross border cups involving Scottish, Welsh, Cornish, Irish, and English club sides.
Imagine games like Dundee United FC v Manchester City, Leeds United v Hibernian, Luton Town v Holywell Town, Aberdeen v Newport County, Man Utd v Connahs Quay Nomads, Inverness CT v Cork City, Ross County v Wrexham, Glasgow Celtic v Cardiff City, Glasgow Rangers v Liverpool, and Falkirk v Everton.
Good ideas but imagine the carnage 😂
Not a time I'd ever like to see repeated. And I used to stand at the Gelderd Road end.
There's only one United you half full bellend Road with sheep! Man United will never die!
Happy days 😂😂
What’s the sign MOT?
MARCHING ON TOGETHER..👍😁
MOT - Ministry of Transportation.
Hi Super Leeds united simply the greatest team in the world
So flares were once allowed in stadiums ' )
⚔️ SUFC - BLADES ⚔️
Were the Leeds Utd bootboys in the 70's not all on the pitch?
Not seen at Goodison park
@@bluenose007 is goodison park the ground of west Bromwich villa?
@@rogerdecoursey8341 Stick to Nooky Bear Roger
@@bluenose007 no I have orville and chuckles.
03:11 onwards...... Was this at a football game, or a Bay City Rollers concert..??
Why did the Fashion go from the smart Hard Mod Skinhead, Suede look to that horrible long hairs and flares as the Football crowd just followed the Hippies ?
It's 2021 and Leeds are back in Premier league but no fans allowed at any football game for nearly a year now thanks to bloody covid19 🤬 (ALAW) ❤️ ⚽ ✊
Never seen at goodison in 70 s
True ... didn't get our away act together proper until 80-81.. took the piss there plenty after though..
look at the footage in 78/79 plenty of Leeds behind that goal
made up for it in the 8os tbf
Went a few times to Anfield though. All seems a bit silly now. .especially the childish chant of, 'You're gonna get your fucking head kicked in '. It really was dangerous following leeds about.
Leeds made more of a show up an down the country than Everton back then
😱😱
6.16 - 8.15 Leeds v Manchester city FA cup game1976 ish Leeds won 1- 0 think it was Paul reeney or madeley who scored ,Great day out , about 150 of us ( city) went in the geldered end. Always remember a city fan , squaring up to Gordon Mcqueen as we went across the pitch to the city end .
150 lol, I was there and remember it well, there were about 10 who ran across the pitch after being chased out of the Gelderd End.
The only reason why fans don't throw bog paper onto the pitch cos it too dang expensive
Ah yes ....March or was it April ,73 ....Leeds 1 v 4 Burnley with Hunter adding Casper to the nations disabled list .
That would have been "74
Ahh yes my mistake ,74.....great vid by the way good to look back on some social history even if it does feel like yesterday .
Hunter shit himself when Francis Lee went for him , he got the world record for running backwards
Shame it's all spoiled now!
When I read the title of the video, I was expecting to see a documentary about Fatso Revies team
doesnt everyone hate Man Utd TOON ARMY
Great to see everything White 😀😀
Well, Leeds were considered more a racist club. So you were not likely to see many blacks following them. Plus, most of Yorkshire in those days had more Asian immigration (from the British Empire, of course) than black and Asians are not typically football fans.

Great spot.
Spitting image
i'm american but i been to the uk i was there in the late 90's and i was really bummed that this whole 'football hooligan' phenomenon was over by then it really wuda bin suppum to see this fer real. i guess you still can in eastern europe or south america but in the uk wuda bin the best seeing as that's it's birth place and wutnot. when you watch this you also can't help but notice how white england still was back then but also how thin everybody was in comparison to what you'd see now. alot more mullets back then too.
Its stupid and these cunts should be attacking the politicians and Muslim grooming gangs if they are that mad and hard and don't bring so called sport into it as you don't get that with our other better sports like Rugby Union, Rugby League and Cricket
@@samuelspoons3553 Fuckin' cricket and Rugby ? Better sports ? You for real mate ? Football is the biggest sport in the world. It is the most exciting sport and cricket is so boring the spectators fall asleep watching it. Rugby is a lot more watchable than cricket but, it will never compete with footy for drama, passion, excitement, skill and the pure love fans have for their clubs. Without football life would be a boring task. Sunderland afc till i die and in the afterlife. Respect to Leeds Utd from SAFC.
@@samuelspoons3553 You get it at Rugby League a lot more than you would think. The Hull v Hull KR game is particularly notorious. Warrington and Wigan used to have loads of football lads. Featherstone, Wakefield and my team Widnes also have their fair share of hooligans.
@@burnleyfan11965 Good I never knew that as always thought Football fans and Rugby League fans didn't like in Leeds, Bradford and Wigan etc ?
I would certainly not say Leeds fans of that time were the best behaved ever but they were FAR better than Manchester United
dream on scumbag get back into the gutter..united were always top boys👹
great club great fans im kidding their shit
lmao seen one punch thrown
It’s not about fighting you tit however if you want to see leeds fans giving another mob a good hiding you can happily search that
leeds took a good hiding on saturday when wolves turned up. FACT

Laters Turd.
Oh yeah , you're getting boring now so onece again laters turd.
Remember Cardiff went up there for an f a cup tie in the 70 tees they all left the ground early and tried to get round the home end leeds didn't even try to get at them instead just stood there shitting themselves
Biggest load of bollocks I've heard.. I was at the match..Jan 1975 Cardiff were locked in at the end by police.. a couple of Cardiff tried getting on the pitch at half time in front of the goal and got chinned
Nothing to be proud of in this.
Great days out
Three things - Can anyone recognize themselves and secondly those were the day's when graffiti was about who 'rules' or it was political and there weren't that many fatties !!
Americans won’t get it.
like brian clough said your medals are worth nowt ...reason because you cheated
Dont talk shite you nob
fuckwitt
Clough was a cheat, remember the brown envelopes?
He was probably pissed out of his head when he said that, old fucking lush that he was.
They never were champions of Europe
Yes they were.
@@Lord_Hillcrest01 Leeds never won the European Cup
@@allanhall4210 Oh they did they just didnt get the result.
@@Lord_Hillcrest01 they never won it. They lost 2-0 to Beyern Munich in 1975 in the final
@@allanhall4210 Yep they lost 2-0 to Bayern Munich as you say . Anyone who knows football is fully aware of how leeds were cheated out of the result . When the referee was never given another match after that says it all really . Same as the cup winners cup 2 years earlier . Im leeds through and through and let me tell you , if your team was leeds in '75 i would be saying exactly the same . Alan Clarke was fouled by beckenbauer and lorimers volleyed goal were two massive points in that game we were simply cheated what was rightfully ours . I know its easy to blame to ref but bribery allegations were proven it seems.
BURNLEY FC FOREVER !
Must be a bit embarrassing to be a Burnley fan and have the surname Blackburn 😂
feral fans
Horrible club
They have never been champions of Europe
Only at cheating
You hate us..That's good enough for me, when no-marks like you start liking us, then we have a problem.
@@fezhat7096 Well said, its always funny to see the haters mouthing off. They just come to Leeds videos to troll...sad bastards.
I've never heard of Leeds United, must be a low rate soccer team
Anyone who calls football ‘soccer’ clearly knows fuck all about the game so I wouldn’t lose any sleep over what you’ve heard of.
@@Porkcylinder Nice one.
We don't want you to know about us anyway, we are very exclusive.
Lol you were never and never will be champions of Europe.. 6times Ynwa
The computer says no.
Funny watchin um get chased though init ?
Oh rite,so that shows hoards of Leeds fans.Then the Red army taking over Bellend road.!!
mug
Not many came back looking the same they did when they arrived lol, are you old enough to remember the 70's at Elland road?
CLOUGHGOAT Man U were a far better mob than Leeds have ever been.
@CLOUGHGOAT nearly right United 1..leeds at home only 2..who remembers when we shared their end in the 70s..no other team managed that..it was 2 all that day i believe and paul Edwards scored for us 👹
@@mickfoskett6629 I remember united having a good third of the geldard end in a 2-2 draw 70/1 season..fighting in 3 sides of the ground throughout the game.
